Drama Night
Drama students performed their classwork on Thursday evening. These presentations allow us to showcase what we’ve been working on this term. Having an audience is an essential part of theatre and we are grateful for this opportunity to perform.
Christmas Twilight Concert
This past Friday evening, all performing artists of the College had the pleasure of joining together for our annual Christmas Twilight Concert. We had a wonderful audience (in both enthusiasm and numbers) and despite threatening rain halfway through the concert, the evening was a huge success. The highlight performances of the night were without a doubt those by the College Orchestra, String Ensemble and the combined College Chorale. At the end of the night, all performers and audience members joined together to sing Christmas carols and several special guests joined the chorale on the choir stands such as Mr Stearn and Mr Ronchetti. Overall, the night was filled with wonderful musicianship, Christmas cheer and the enthusiasm for the performing arts that our college is known for.

Student Support for White Ribbon Day
As a cohort we demonstrated our commitment to end violence towards women by wearing a White Ribbon. We understand that a large proportion of perpetrators against women are men and hence as young men we play a pivotal role in changing this statistic. In recognising ‘White Ribbon Day’ we hope to raise awareness of this ongoing issue and promote values of respect and dignity that align with our student mission.
Year 12 Chinese excursion
On Friday 17 November, Year 12 Chinese students went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch. Students were required to order in Chinese, putting their skills into practice. We are all very thankful to Mrs Lee for taking us out for lunch.
Student Submissions
When we conceived the idea of a Student Voice page our primary focus was on allowing our fellow students to showcase and share their word. In this regard, we have created a ‘Student Submissions’ form, so if you wish to showcase your work in relation to the school and our greater community please find the link below:
